-Hiking, camping, hunting

Thank you for any suggestions or help of any kind!

Field watches are pretty versatile aesthetically and in terms of use. They are basically casual watches, but look OK dressed up on a nice leather strap too.

In that budget: Seiko 5 field watch. Vaer S3 or S5 field watch. Between these two, Vaer might be more durable because of its more scratch resistant sapphire crystal. Seiko is a much bigger and well known brand.

For casual and outdoors and work days, wear it on a metal bracelet or nato strap. For weddings, nice dinner, church, put it on a dressy leather strap.
